I proposed a minor change in the README to add instructions for Anaconda users: https://github.com/biopython/biopython/pull/804. For non-Anaconda Windows users, another (cleaner?) way would be to support binary wheels. Projects like numpy, scipy, sklearn have been supporting the binary wheels on pypi for Windows and lately for Linux [1,2] What do people think about moving to binary wheels for pip?
